said  "And what 2 gun's would you wish to have?", what would they be???

I'd like a PCP but don't know which one and it would have to have all of the filling equipment (compressor and tank). Got to think real hard about a second one since I only get two...lol...

As for me, I'd ask that Genie for a Talon SS, and a Mountainair .20 all nice and chrome, with Butternut grips, please :)

Mac1 LD with a Steve Corcoran carbine stock and compact scope.

A PCP of some type  with the required accessories, even with the gun provided by a genie i don't think i could afford all the kit right now...
Something moderately compact and medium weight, multi-shot with variable power from about 12 to 20 fpe would be nice.

...oh heck why not just and FX Revolution, this is idle fantasy after all.

Well Genie, after several hours of thought, I would have to choose a Air Arms Pro Sport in a custom stock with a Elite 4200 6-24 scope in BKL mounts for my first choice.   Second I would have to go with the Air Arms EV2 with a Nikko Sterling 10-50 scope also in BKL rings.    Of course there are more expensive guns out there and I could always ask for two of those and sell them for cash, use the cash to buy the two listed guns and use the excess funds for a nice vaction.

any two....probably a Giffard ...1800's vintage co2 rifle.Maybe the pistol version as the second,or a bowkett custom multi pump rifle.

I think the 1322 carbine that I built is already the first one and the second one is the extended stroke 1322 that I'am building now. There is just something cool about building and shooting your own customized gun that I like.

I'm a die-hard spring-piston shooter where air rifles are concerned, so I wouldn't be asking for anything too exotic........

Since my current brace of R-9's meets my needs well, I reckon that asking the Genie for a very cherry FWB 124 for the wife is what one of my "wishes" would be.  She'd enjoy shooting one of those a lot more than an R-9, due to the lighter cocking effort.

If this is a really tallented Genie, I might ask him to do something custom starting with a Gamo (yep, you read that right) 1000.  I'd have him put on a .20 HW barrel, put in one of Bob Werner's triggers, fashion a black anodized aluminum trigger guard and compression tube endcap, and thereby get rid of everything cheezy about the Shadow that I don't like.

Hey, dreams are free, right?  Why not dream big ones?

I want a .25 cal patriot.  Or a B50/b51
: Similar thoughts as clasicalgas........

A Girandoni repeating rifle, a cased Bate ball reservoir rifle, a cased Stadenmayer with rifled and shot barrels,or a........well, you get the picture. Pre 1800.  You didn't say we had to go easy on the genie...lol.
: IF THE AIRGUN GENIE GAVE ME THREE CHOICES, I WOULD......
: Gene_SC July 12, 2006, 02:14:21 PM
1.  Want a PCP .22, 6 shot repeater, that only weight 6 lbs. Had a muzzle FPE of 80lbs, with 35 gram pellets...:)

2. Want a .22, 6 shot repeater Springer that only weight 7 lbs, that had a muzzle FPE of 50lbs. with 30 gram pellets. With very little recoil.... :)

3. Want a new Right Eye so I could shoot the above..... :).... and also a couple new scopes that when you looked through them, it would be like looking through a bay window with cross hairs....
